Psalm 107:1-22 and Romans 12:1-2

Today has an amazing conversation with the Rev. Dr. Danny Murphy, the General Presbyter of Trinity Presbytery here in South Carolina—that is Danny is the executive leader for the Presbyterian churches in our region.

Any conversation with Danny is interesting, but today’s is especially engaging. This summer Danny published an article entitled “My Thoughts on George Floyd.” In that article Danny shared accounts of his experiences with police officers as an African-American man. I’ll put a link to that article in the show notes, and really you should go read it! Danny will reflect on the publishing of that article and some of the stories in it about 10 ½ minutes into the interview.

Thanks so much to Danny Murphy for his time and his courage to share his experiences. I was deeply moved by the way Danny framed the conversation in terms of the cross and resurrection.
